Over the past few years I have gathered a few now unused LCD. monitors.I've ended up with these as modern LCD. TVs allow for PC. connection. Rather than throw them away I was wondering if they can be used for anything else.
Are there any useful parts inside I can rob out or can they be made/hacked in to something interesting?
Did a google and mostly found and LCD. projector hack, don't think that's worth the effort!!.
The backlight drivers are probably worth scavenging, sometimes they're separate circuits from the main board and easily removable. Basically any discretes large enough to safely desolder would probably be agood idea to grab.
The older the TV's are the better as they'll use more discrete's. The more modern a device is the fewer discrete components it uses and the more IC's it uses.
